Software Engineer

Siemens EDA is a global technology leader in Electronic Design Automation software. Our software tools enable companies around the world to develop highly innovative electronic products faster and more cost-effectively. Our customers use our tools to push the boundaries of technology and physics to deliver better products in the increasingly complex world of chip, board, and system design.

Siemens Digital Industries Software is a leading provider of solutions for the design, simulation, and manufacture of products across many different industries. Formula 1 cars, skyscrapers, ships, space exploration vehicles, and many of the objects we see in our daily lives are being conceived and manufactured using our Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) software.
We are looking for a highly motivated software engineer with good mathematical and computer science knowledge to work on the Calibre engineering team in the Siemens EDA IC segment. You will be part of a team responsible for designing, developing, and supporting the Calibre Parasitic Extraction software (xACT, xACT3D). The Calibre parasitic extraction products identify the electrical side effects of devices and interconnect wires in integrated circuit designs and output those in a format that can be used for comprehensive post-layout analysis and simulation. Development responsibilities will span different software components including computation engines, application software, APIs, and utilities, with emphasis on implementing numerical solutions to partial differential equations (PDEs) arising from electrostatics in C++ and related languages. You will collaborate with a senior group of software engineers on the production-level quality of new components and algorithms and support existing parasitic extraction-related products.
Responsibilities:

• Support the software development team with advanced numerical methods, C++ algorithms, meshing, linear solvers and automation/optimization tools
• Promotes innovation through the ability to introduce new technology/knowledge into at least one area of a product and to our people. 
• Works without supervision on highly complex projects with complete latitude for independent judgment and technical expertise. 

Minimum Job Qualifications:

• Master's degree in Electrical Engineering,  Computer Science, Scientific Computing, or related discipline, from an accredited institution. 
• Knowledge of practical (scientific computing, simulation, ML) software development experience on projects that required numerical linear algebra and data structures/algorithms for high-volume data analysis, simulation, optimization and computing.
• Excellent programming (C++), and software engineering skills.
• Strong team player with solid interpersonal and communication skills (written and verbal)
• Strong ability and interest to learn, explore, and apply new technologies in the domains of software engineering, computer science, and numerical mathematics
• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills
• Self-motivation, self-discipline, and the ability to set and work consistently toward personal goals

Preferred Job Qualifications:

• Good mathematical and numerical skills and high performance computing
• AI/ML based methods of solving PDE
• Deep knowledge of semiconductor processes, advanced technology nodes and device modeling, and motivation to stay current with advanced node developments from leading semiconductor foundries.
• Experience with large software development projects (code reviews, version management, unit tests, static/dynamic code checkers).
• Experience with multi-threaded, distributed, and high-performance computing.
• Experience with PDE solvers and electromagnetics.
• IC CAD experience (DRC, LVS, extraction, simulation).
• Experience with UNIX and/or LINUX platforms.
